After a genuine signed copy?

Using the Amazon Marketplace functionality at Amazon.co.uk, which Robertlomas.com has used for the past four years to sell signed editions of Robert's books, it is possible for us to continue offering signed editions.

Robert periodically makes available signed editions of his books, to sell especially to those fans who, perhaps, may not be able to attend his bookshop talks. He signs the books just as he signs copies for stock purposes at high-street bookshop signing sessions.

How does it work?

To make the whole process of pin-pointing signed copies easier, we list the books Robert's made available, as you can see just to the right hand side.

Each listing is an individual book for sale - once one has been sold, it will automatically be taken off the list.

What is Amazon Marketplace?

Servicing each transaction is the Amazon.co.uk Marketplace technology whereby anybody can sell books via Amazon.co.uk's website at www.amazon.co.uk.

Through the Amazon.co.uk website, you can order brand new, signed editions of Robert's books at the normal list prices, from Robertlomas.com, and we, not Amazon, will despatch it to you as soon as Amazon have notified us of your transaction.

Look for the seller robertlomas_com - the Amazon account we hold for www.robertlomas.com - and read the comment for the copy available for purchase. The comment makes reference to a genuine signed copy. If the seller is not robertlomas_com then it is not us and has nothing to do with Robertlomas.com. There may, of course, be other people selling Robert's books - these instructions guide you to the official Robertlomas.com sale of signed books.

Okay, how do I purchase?

From the available books listed above-right, click on the book you wish to buy. This will open the Amazon.co.uk Marketplace listing for that particular book.

Second, click on the button to begin the transaction of purchasing that signed book from Robertlomas.com, but through the secure online Amazon Payments system at Amazon¹.

In order to purchase a book, you must have an account at www.amazon.co.uk - if you have not, it is possible to create one as part of the transaction process.

All payment is handled by Amazon.co.uk using their secure Amazon Payments system, therefore an account, holding your bank account details, is required so that Amazon.co.uk can transfer your payment from your account to ours. Unfortunately, because of the way Amazon Payments does this, Amazon cannot work with any other method of payment.

I've bought a book, what happens now?

When you have gone through the transaction process, you will receive a confirmation email from Amazon.co.uk and Amazon will forward your details to us so that we at Robertlomas.com can dispatch the signed edition to you.

Remember, Amazon.co.uk is not selling you the book, so they are transfering your payment to us by using their secure Amazon Payments system.

We, at Robertlomas.com, will then prepare to dispatch your signed copy to you within two business days. If there are any problems, you can be assured that we will notify you of them.

¹Although the transaction to purchase the signed copies takes place at Amazon.co.uk, delivery can be made to any part of the world - not just the United Kingdom. Postage and packaging charges are added on to the final total - the charge for postage and packaging varies in amount depending on where the book has to be delivered around the world. For example, the lowest charge will therefore be for deliveries in the UK.
